Industry Control

This book presents the main results of the 19th Latin American Congress of Automatic Control held in November 2022 in Havana, Cuba. The Congress showed several main research results obtained by researchers from diverse countries in the last four years.

Today, digital technologies represent an absolute must when it comes to creating new products and factories. However, day-to-day product development and manufacturing engineering operations have still only unlocked roughly fifty percent of the "digital potential". The question is why? This book provides compelling answers and remedies to that question. Its goal is to identify the main strengths and weaknesses of today’s set-up for digital engineering working solutions, and to outline important trends and developments for the future.

Das Buch richtet sich an in der Industrie tätige Ingenieure, die MPC-Regelungen planen, entwickeln und betreiben, aber auch an Studierende technischer Fachdisziplinen, die in das Arbeitsgebiet MPC einsteigen wollen. Das vorliegende Buch gibt eine Übersicht über die Grundideen und Anwendungsvorteile des MPC-Konzepts. Es zeigt, wie mit Hilfe der Toolbox MPC-Regelungen entworfen, eingestellt und simuliert werden können.
The book is aimed at engineers in industry interested in the development and application of MPC systems, as well as students of different technical disciplines seeking an introduction into this field. This book gives an overview of the basic ideas and advantages of the MPC concept. It shows how MPC systems can be designed, tuned, and simulated using the MPC Toolbox.

This book constitutes the full papers and short monographs developed on the base of the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Information Technologies: Information and Communication Technologies for Research and Industry (ICIT-2019), held in Saratov, Russia in February 2019.

This book aims at bringing together global researchers to generate thought on how this transition from Industry 4.0 to Industry 5.0 could make a difference to the globe for larger good. The collaboration and interaction between man and machine has given rise to Industry 5.0. With the prime objective of Industry 5.0 to create a benefit for the human beings while tapping on to the advantage of Industry 4.0, in no case, does it replace what has already been achieved. In fact, it brings to light what can be done in order to make life better. While Industry 4.0 offered extraordinary technological advancement, Industry 5.0 reasons out that technology alone is not sufficient to answer everything or provide a solution, but it is an amalgamation of both machine and human interaction to create that difference. In fact, with the impact of widespread digitalization that has led to dehumanization of the industrial makeup, the interest of global researchers has increased toward mapping how the human creativity and brainpower can be reconciled with the intelligent systems that can enhance process efficiency.

This book addresses the key aspects concerning the rapid development of mechatronics. It also helps to understand the respective great significance of cooperation between researchers and professionals. Mechatronics is crucial for many areas of life. However, its invaluable contribution is particularly seen in the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0). In response to the current issues in mechatronics, the 6th International Conference Mechatronics 2023: Ideas for Industrial Applications was organized from 11 to 13 December 2023 in Krakow, Poland. The following topics were discussed: artificial intelligence, robotics, image processing, software, control systems, space applications, modeling and identification of mechatronic systems, smart materials, and prototype construction with 3D printing. This book provides the solutions ready for implementation in industry. These solutions grew out of the ideas exchange between the Conference attendees representing various backgrounds.

Have you taken a backseat role when it comes to your healthcare and insurance decisions? Maybe you're mad as hell about checking boxes you don't understand and watching your premiums go up. Maybe you're struggling to determine your personal risk and what plan is right for you. Maybe you feel the industry is a speaking different language—one you'll never understand.
